Key assumptions of the biological approach |
Things like Genes neurochemistry and the nerve system all affect our behaviour |
|

Twin studies are used to determine the likelihood that certain traits have a genetic basis by comparing the coordinates right between the two Monozygotic twins have a higher coordinates right then dizygotic twins this is because Monozygotic twins share more DNA |
